Fulbruge III Clerk UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee v. OMAR CARRIZOSA-FLORES, Defendant-Appellant Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas USDC No. 3:09-CR-281-1 Before GARZA, DENNIS, and ELROD, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Appealing the judgment in a criminal case, Omar Carrizosa-Flores presents arguments that he concedes are foreclosed by United States v. CepedaRios, 530 F.3d 333, 335-36 (5th Cir. 2008), which held that even after Lopez v. Gonzales, 549 U.S. 47 (2006), a second state conviction for simple possession of a controlled substance qualifies as an aggravated felony that supports the imposition of an eight-level enhancement under United States Sentencing Guideline ยง 2L1.2(b)(1)(C). The Government s motion for summary affirmance is GRANTED, and the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED. * Pursuant to 5TH CIR . R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR . R. 47.5.4.
